Read 3 times. Last read January 17, 2021 to January 23, 2021.
Reread in January of 2019
Kind of? buddy read with Monica from Monica Kim!
THIS CONCLUSION. IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL IN SO MANY WAYS. The first time I read it I gave into the peer pressure of everyone who hated the ending and thought I did too and WOO BOY was I wrong. I truly love it. ALINA - grows so much in this book. MAL - THAT CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT THOUGH. NIKOLAI - still a FAVE and I LOVE HIM. THE DARKLING - STILL THE WORST KEEPS GETTING WORSE TBH.
I truly think this is the conclusion and ending WE DESERVED. we stan.
